However, I was very sad to discover that many used this opportunity to take one article in particular and pretent they had coincidently all come across it at the same time. Doing so they breached what I feel is the core essence of being a blogger - sharing and sourcing. It is one thing to share an article or retweet it, without hiding the source. It is quite a different story when you pretent your article is original content or your own discovery, so much for good and honest journalist - because yes journalist were among those you don't bother to thank, name your credit.

I am not a strong believer in coincidences, even less so when article came out in september. The interesting thing was they were all willing to promote and share the magazine/newspaper that wrote the article but not the blogger that shared it and brought it to their attention, such a pity. It disappoints me as I take great pleasure in promoting my fellow bloggers, and honestly I will probably start to be more selfish from now on. I won't dwell on this any longer but I do find this kind of behavior strange to say the least, misguiding and dishonest.

Anyway, I am off to paris tonight for Easter which should be fun as always, especially if we have the same weather we have been having lately. Looking forward to meeting up with soem of you.
